Faculty members at Columbia University petition leadership to enforce stronger policies against antisemitic activities as the new semester begins. The petition calls for a plain English statement on permissible student conduct and alleges that university policies were ignored in the past academic year, resulting in pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel activism, antisemitic rhetoric, and violence against Jewish and Israeli students. The release of the Antisemitism Task Force report, which echoes many of the petition's recommendations, has further highlighted the need for action. Concerns about campus safety and the potential for further radicalization and terrorist attacks have been raised as the new academic year approaches.
